ah sure with ah, what he's on the street and hospitals overflowing in sudan violent clashes between the countries army and power military group. and for the 13th day, one doesn't send depleted uranium rounds to give the ammunition takes a long time to decay. and there are concerns over impacts on human health and u. s. byte venezuelan opposition leader upon guido is expelled from colombia becoming yet another washington endorsed political figure, fallen from grace with

july for my headquarters here in moscow, you're watching art international. my name is peter scott here with the top stories this. our thanks for joining us. now we start with news from central india as 10 police officers and a driver have reported it being killed in a car, bomb blast, according to authorities. now here's some of verified images circulating on social media. local media that have reported the attack may have been carried out by a maoist group, which has been involved in antique governments activity for decades. the police man killed were said to be returning from an anti most operation that was launched after intelligence reports will keep you updated on that story. ah oh, it's used to done now where violence has entered its 13th day, already claiming the lives of over 450 people with more than 4000 injured according to the world health organization. now under the warning, you may find these images disturbing as well. these 20 people were wounded during

the shelling of a medical center in the city of on them on the floor of the hospital was covered in blood following the bombing. but fortunately, there were no fates or injuries reported. a shell also fell on a school in khartoum, leaving the building in ruins. before images, you may also on disturbing as well last the forces of the national army also stores are assess vehicles on tuesday, a bending car and several scattered corpses can be seen on the road. you and is concerned about the escalation of violence in the country, which could spock a wider conflict from the region. the representative of the organisation into dung says that there are no signs of peace resolution. yes. to an equivalent sign that either is ready to seriously negotiate, suggesting that both thing and securing a military victory over the other is possible. the fighting incident has created a humanitarian catastrophe with civilians bearing it's just,

i think the previously agreed to file flush if it's still looking close between the for the nice army under up it's work, for instance in several areas of hostile living, trespass of destruction. while this on the streets on money injuries amongst the robert support for assist for the 1st step of the army. had we use this? when did you our fire agreement? you got the army aircraft, were still flying over the positions of artillery was still targeting them even after the agreement are well suspected. that's what happened on firms of the army has more than one decision center. and these actions are being issued by the extreme of firms, a leader of the officer jim who are inside of the army for months with a choice or not. these flashes are still resulting in more casualties. they offer a date on the other side, on the controversial, if that means that was forecasted the local channel. incidence, a leader of the former regime, a total was wanted by the internet like criminal court or walls times on crimes

against humanity in got $430.00 that they manage to get out of prison and they will protect themselves by their own hands. they also said that they did it and got out of prison. sure, the suffering with people to support the arm process. how is that men cause the sensation raising suspicions about the past where gene support for the armed forces and the will influence of the islamist inside the army command, juice after truce with international unwinnable efforts to stop this war. but all of these efforts will be with us unless the 2 warring parties are convinced of the need to stop check on which are reasonable solution. what is this we're going to is people interest above everything else? the law same r t. so done hospital with several countries urgently evacuating the citizens from sudan. we since footage shows evacuated, sporting a french frigates in port sudan to care usa. you can you also all evacuating their nationals and us as locals, look for their own escape routes. earlier we spoke with well lead micra and i

witness evacuated from sudan to paris. you spoke of the horrors he saw in the conflict. so the problem start today. my house is not far away from the military days and they are or early in the morning about a, a n i woke up with it's everywhere that is normal. ok. i thought, you know, look, if there is only 3, you know, a lot of places there is no food. there is maybe that isn't almost because i saw women's giving bits of babies shy is born in the, in the ground. i need to plan what we have to do all over the maximum one cup like into tish. you caught before

that i need to dream. it is no work today. how could, how could i am very, very far as my product and my family, my neighbors, my settings are an eyesore w. m. to it my neighborhood. a child 6 years old, 6 years old. his father died before 5 years. he's all he's along with his mother. he's in a science home. he's playing with his tablet or phone. well, it's what, what the child did before the cry. so crying, innocent people, my message call told me

that i was mostly mean you're the only see whether you will very, very budget. we spoke with waffa busing, former assistant to the gyptian foreign minister and current member of the un human rights committee. and he thinks that the sudanese issue should be resolved with an african institutions. here we find that they're presented to us to dine. yes. today in the security, cancer has sad to gather with the other countries as well. have agreed that the african union that this is an african issue should that need issue and has to be sold within the african let's say institutions and that the sudanese institutions have to be protected. i don't think that there is

a desire on the part of this so that he is the african being on a line that too much internationally warming is trying to solve. the problems is ready, while of course, the issue of sudan has been already nationalized. but with this escalation, things that are, that things are become very sensitive and i think this would then use within the african, you have to be given the chance to try to stick together on the negotiate paper. it will be, i mean, for instance, we don't know how the united states is applying to interfere, whether for assistance or for other purposes. for me that would lead to more

aggravation of the situation. but yesterday, the permanent representative did not really dwell much on the details of the initiative. that is. ringback saying that they are preparing for trying to find the solution for the situation in sudan. let's not forget that history has. and that, that, that he need is that the u. s. a or western college and others where very much in favor of splitting sudan to sudan and south sudan. and today, both countries, more states are stuck having a lot of problems, a lot of a junior divisions and on both sides. the example of the interference of a western powers and or international powers is not encouraging us

to accept the order to repeat big tickets. ah, moscow has criticized the u. k. for delivering depleted uranium rounds to ukraine said that london unclear for bear responsibility for using them. the controversial ammunition does take a long time to decay on may have serious health effects on the population returns to pretty much the british should understand that they will have to bear responsibility for the usage of depleted uranium. as well as those who use such munitions. they have to understand that it will not only harm them and their citizens, but they'll be responsible for it. you are russia's criticism comes out to the u. k . armed forces minister confirm that ukraine has received his 1st rounds of depleted uranium shells. london, however, has brushed off any responsibility for the usage of them. are war correspondence broadcast, it has more. now in its 60th week, the conflict in ukraine is largely confined to position of warfare. artillery

remains the dominant form of combat. this is the relative calm before the storm. according to key of officials in their western sponsors, the ukrainian military is waiting for the soil to dry enough to launch its spring offensive. meanwhile, nate who supplied tanks make their way closer to the front lines. in one video film that an unknown location, a ukrainian tank crew member appears to throw a nazi salute. while riding a top a german leopard to tank. the dramatic escalation, britain has also sent controversial depleted uranium tank shells to ukraine. we have sand thousands of rounds of challenger to ammunition to ukraine, include in depleted uranium armor pierce in rounds for operational security reasons

. we will not comment on ukrainian user traits for the rounds, provided the pleated uranium rounds are believed to have led to soaring cancer rates, miscarriages, and infant deformities and places where they've been used. former yugoslavia and iraq, for example, the radioactive corps of these rounds excludes into tiny fragments and can measurably contaminate the environment for decades. written feels that this is not its problem. there is no obligation on the u. k. to help clear of depleted uranium rounds fired from challenger to tanks by the armed forces of ukraine, russian president vladimir putin had previously warned of consequences if britain supplies such shells. those warnings were ignored. for now, russian forces have concentrated on locating in is showing western weapons supplied to ukraine. almost daily, new videos appear showing and drew strikes against artillery and vehicles supplied

by nathan states. ah, on the diplomatic front, there appears to be new cause for optimism. speaking at the un, the russian foreign minister, sergey lover of highlighted what some believe to be an absurd situation. just for you. with those mission, there is currently a ridiculous theory. let us the west. they care a few cranes successful counter offensive, and then asked presidents lensky to start negotiations. but this is a kind of gets a frantic logic. we want no threats to our security to come from the territory of ukraine. and these threats have been accumulating there for many, many years, especially after the crew in february 2014. as for the counter offensive, doubts are creeping in among western journalists and politicians. russia has 4 to 5 immensely, and amassed huge reserves. if you cranes counter offensive fails to achieve

significant results, they say future western support may be in doubt. or at gaz, the of r t from logan squeegee in beijing has urged all sides in the war in ukraine and to remain restrained as it sends the message. the key of that know when's a nuclear war? warning comes after was believe to be the 1st phone call between the chinese president seizing thing and ukrainian counts above all of him. his zalinski to learn more in the story and more do head of it. so our websites are not black. the war in ukraine majors on with claims of a looming key of counter offensive ukraine's financial advisor has said that legally there's nothing preventing here from destroying the regions. russia considers its own, it will be legally. we have the right to destroy everything that is on the crime in peninsula don't ask. lugens can of course, close on and separation. from a legal standpoint, there should be no complaints against ukraine,

additional bombs agreement, as cos live. now 2 political consultants are no delay. no thanks very much for joining us this afternoon. now 1st of all, i just need to get your thoughts on the statements by the ukrainian presidential advisor. what do you make of it? well, it's basically sounds like someone we know just got the backing of the corporate western media or you know, the young. where are we saying? what would by all accounts consider the mission as the mission and the russian side . the not want to remind this gentleman that such a mission or an or statements well and might be used against him in the future. you know, i mean, is the not just arguments say that the statements are often made during a war to be made during the war, but they are the laws of war and the laws of warranty. they that you cannot, even when we don't prospective, we take the,

the premise that the origins issue are still great, and you're not allowed to bond your own, your own citizens. and this is actually the go of the not going back to the my dad who n d s to tier treatment of ukrainian citizen by k van, neo. and as the idea ology, obviously now, because we are in a state of conflict, obviously we are, the prism of analysis is whether or not any of the targeting of the ukrainian forces as any strategy military value. and the fact of the matter is for the last 9 years, they don't the shell in dpi in dorn. yeah. and all you're going to areas by and large, including churches, schools and hospitals, 1st, emergency personnel, even lens postulate, that those people are completely owning up to it. and don't den on stopping doing

what they're doing now. so, you know, the russia will be happy to know that we do have a, a name now, you know, behind those statements and that there is no in b ambiguity anymore about what has been going on and what is likely to go on furthermore, but also in the news today the u. k. has confirmed you has supplied depleted uranium shelves to key of do you think this is much of an escalation in the conflict? well, it is because i want to because what happened in iraq was the use of those munitions. obviously everyone has in mind the flu shot situation where, you know, behind closed doors, airport 2004, and then november 2004 my high and again, any kind of media coverage of it. you know, we found out that and up to the day, the use of that kind of a munition has led to tremendous cases of muscle mission then are cancer and still

more cases. so this is completely against against the laws of war and august. the you get cannot only does a lower bodies and cannot pretend that just because the ukrainian home forces out taking stock of the, of the material. there was their responsibilities perfectly obvious. get it. obviously, we mentioned that against the laws of war, but many of the countries in need. so they say that there are, there's no proof of adverse effects of these weapons and they are considered to be conventional arms. what do you make of them? well, they are considered to be congressional weaponry, but we all know that the environment is completely affected by this. and this bears the question whether or not the natal side is that if they're not going to be able to recover those or zones, those are regions that they consider to be more or less under control,

which would be under control. they might just decide to off for the cost of policy and boys or the value area, which itself would be a war until on old political consultant. thanks very much for your thoughts. today's good talking on the program. you oh, another one. bites the dust us bites, opposition leader, one guy doe has fallen from grace, and as well as much criticize, a politician has been expelled from columbia, where he was trying to attend an international conference ortiz, steve sweeney takes a look at various foreign political assets and how they faded into obscurity. huffman is wayne, an opposition figure why dough kind have been expelled from columbia. i was after arriving in the country to meet with participants at an international conference. colombian authorities escorted him on to a plane bound for the us, where he recorded a voice message saying he was being persecuted by the countries new left when

president gustavo petro. o. as in florida, after 60 hours to get to bogota, fleeing the persecution of the dictatorship defying the madura regime, they are taking me out of columbia. the dictatorships persecution has unfortunately spread to columbia. it is a remarkable fall from grace. why though, who columbia at once recognized as the legitimate president of neighboring venezuela. this followed the 2018 presidential elections, which resulted in the comfortable victory for president nicholas maduro. despite observer sang, the pole was free, fair, and transparent. washington cried foul while opposition groups that boycott to devote launch violent and deadly protests. guido then head of the national assembly declared himself interim president of venezuela. i'm dr. young before almighty god, venezuela and the respect of my fellow deputies, i swear to formerly assumed the powers of the national executive as the president

of venezuela. the announcement prompted immediate support from the white house, with others, including britain and the european union. following soon after this talismanic leader of the opposition to nicholas madeira room here was greeted as a return here hon y dot has declared himself the country's new president, then is made his largest neighbours, columbia, and brazil have already recognized the m p as president instead of mister madura as have other south american governments and the united states knows he has the backing of the united states of canada, of brazil over the european union. so he thinks he's in a position of force stand up. he was lorded by western countries and was even invited as the official venezuela representative to the state of union address by then you as president donald trump, who heaped him with praise here this evening. so very brave man who carries with

him the hopes, dreams and aspirations of all that as well. it's joining us in the gallery is the true and legitimate president of venezuela, one white ho. please take this message back that all americans are united with the venezuelan people in their righteous struggle for freedom. thank you very much. but offer a series of fell co attempts and a lack of support inside venezuela. guido became a figure of ridicule. the opposition eventually turned his back on him in 2020 voting him out. his head of the national assembly describing him as a dream, turned into a nightmare guy delight to the country and to the international community. he also repeatedly denied to everyone that he was not in talks with madura and the truth is that you got up and ran back to your main international allies. but typically, guido refused to accept the outcome, swearing himself in as the president,

he was eventually outed altogether by his own allies in december 2022 or the national assembly. an interim government dissolved and washington has now become lukewarm on its former golden boy with president joe by them. first speaking to him, one year off to taking office and not even inviting him to the summit of the americas. guido is just the latest in a long line of western parts, so called opposition figures to be all the abandon once they have exhausted their usefulness. authorities in hong kong has ties just the long one of their territories, most prominent pro democracy activists that organizing an illegal protest face of hong kong is protest. movement has been freed from jail a day after a mass rally in the church against an unpopular tradition law. joshua wong, he's of course, the face of the pro democracy movement here in hong kong. certainly the face of the occupy, they've been in 2014. joshua wong was once the morning of the west,

the heroic face of the so called peaceful movement for democracy in hong kong. he shot a prominence in 2014, during the so called umbrella movement, 79 days of protest, characterized by anti china sentiment. this movement was funded by the national endowment for democracy which lay to bankroll his political party. there was histo . mister wong also featured in an award winning net fixed documentary in reality, a thinly disguised propaganda piece entitled joshua, teenager versus superpower. oh, but the protest movement he fronted, was far from peaceful targeting trade union buildings, businesses deemed pro china uneven hospitals. he has been charged with a string of offenses, saving time in jail for unlawful assembly and publishing personal police data.

after failing in hong kong, the west turns its attention to bell roost, claiming the 2020 presidential election one by the incumbent. lucas shanker was fraudulent. it stokes street protests and pump large sums of money into opposition . groups and media fail candidate svetlana t and oscar, who poll just 10 percent of the vote became the west latest face of democracy we've seen in recent weeks. the momentum building behind the opposition canaday with them all. there's a choice. my kids were to continue the fight. i think my choice will be obvious. so i asked you to understand any decision i made. alexander lucas franco won a 6th term in the countries election sunday demonstrators and the mean opposition candidate in the election have rejected official results. she left the contin self imposed exile to lithuania, which later recognized as the head of bela ruth. this is not the only power le would go i though they both tried and failed to win support of the military. they

both confir sanctions against their respective countries as well as quite go to an off sky. got a warm reception from the west, but likewise, oh, she failed to out her country's president. and last month issued a desperate appeal. not to be forgotten about it. don't want the war to forget about was going on in billers and only excited them is not a local one. it says they only moral vocational for the countries who are special powerful countries and to be, to protect those who owned a difficult, painful for change. with the west, quick to abandon those who wants the center of their support. the question is, who will be next? ah, the pandemic era chief medical advisor to the u. s. president. dots, antony valgy has called on the public not to blame him. the negative effects of lockdown policies he recommended. he argues that he was not the one who made the decision to implement the i happen to be perceived as the person that negation of

the recommendations. but show me a school that i shut down and show me a factory and people made a decision based on that. but i never criticized the people who had to make the decisions one way or the other party contributor rachel marsden joins us live with more. what more can you tell us about this or upon you turned by anthony vouching while she's being so modest, they're suggesting that he's surprised that he somehow became the face of those recommendations and of the panoramic. he only went on tv at the very height of the pan died and joked about brad pitt, laying him on saturday night live, which of course, brad pitt actually did and ended up getting nominated for an emmy awards. so, you know, maybe that wasn't the best suggestion if you want to keep a low profile, it's pretty obvious what's going on here. now she is now retired from his position as the highest paid civil servant in america, and the head of the u. s. national institute of allergy and infectious diseases,

and he's embarked on his legacy rehabilitation tour you seems to be trying to moderate and tempered the various positions that he actively promoted during the pandemic. now that the reality in retrospect is a lot more complicated and nuanced. it's not entirely the opposite, in some cases of what he was actively promoting at the time. for example, thought she said that there was no way the virus came from a lab, but now that seems to be the favorite theory. you went on tv to grow the idea that people make themselves cloth masks to protect themselves from kobinie and now says that this is new in this new interview in the new york times that quote, maps work at the margins, maybe 10 percent, with the exception. he says us and or k and $95.00 now. so, you know, maybe now it wasn't such a good idea to wrap a ban. dana or grandma's how is re around your nose and mouth thinking that it was going to stop you from catching a virus. he says that he never closed the school,

but he certainly didn't fight to keep them open despite acknowledging now that closures led to quote, deleterious collateral consequences. he said that he had nothing to do with that, but it was a political decision. but the problem with that is that they were actually people at the time, arguing in favor of keeping schools open, saying that a could have very negative consequences down the line. and also they were arguing, gets the kind of locked down that she himself played. it lives when he appeared on chris close cnn show, but are now considered by scientists. those law downs, like british infectious disease expert mark was to have done more harm than good. and how did she respond to those contradictory positions? those positions that basically said, you know, we shouldn't be locking down that, contradicted his own views. he simply dismissed them as anti science. like the only truth was the one that he himself put forward. and anyone else arguing differently was just some kind of a mouth breathing

a your amos and felt she was constantly in the media advocating in favor of very specific policies. have a listen. i would like to see a dramatic diminution of the personal interaction that we see in restaurants and in bars, whatever it takes to do that. that's what i'd like to see that have been in discussion with the health authorities from the state of california grew called me and asked, you know, they said we feel we need to do this. what do you think? and i said, you know, you really don't have any choice when you have the challenge to the health care system. you've got to do something like that. so now falcon, mister, i am the science and you're a dangerous moron. if you disagree with me was people to believe that he actually really had no power at all, even when the massive amount of research funding that file she control.
